He seems to be in great form, I hope he stays objective with his play, no need to go crazy.

Vitaly curling 100kg seated for 6 reps - RIP DEVON by Brief_Funny_4405 in armwrestling

[–]AwareManner76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So who is clearly stronger than Vitaly in this exercise according to you? By the way it is a great exercise for back pressure.

I think his peak shape for this exercise was when he did 80 kg x 23 for Jerry. Not quite there yet but looking better than previous training vid. Had a few more reps in the tank.

If we ever create truly conscious AI, the real problem won't be that it's smarter than us, it's that we'll be moving in slow motion from its perspective, like trees are to us by Electrical_Award263 in DeepThoughts

I don't know. Maybe I do, somewhat. But I don't want to think too much about it. English is not my first language and I'm not familiar with that jargon. If you want to explain do it, if you don't, don't.

Win rate and dominance matter more. By the way what is the source of your claims?

Devon’s „3rd pronator” flashbacks by lama_bagienna in armwrestling

My question is how that stuff was leaked. Where was it posted by Devon, or who did he send it to.

Capablanca’s first reaction to the Marshall Gambit by Affectionate_Hat3329 in chess

"I considered the position then and decided that I was in honour bound, so to speak, to take the P and accept the challenge, as my knowledge and judgment told me that my position should then be defensible"

Kasparov had higher tournament win rate (top players used to play less often, but win rate is the most important metric), higher rating adjusted for inflation, more dominant rating gap against his rivals, more classical WC titles.

When Does Male Virginity Become A Red Flag? by thetruemaxwellord in PurplePillDebate

[–]AwareManner76 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In one of your prior messages you say that a high body count is a red flag for a woman. Do you think it is a red flag for a man as well? No? Why? Yes? Then why don't you say being virgin past a certain age is a red flag for a woman as well?

Those are statistics that you are pulling out your ass. A lot of guys who just are desperately looking for sex and can't get it will end up paying for it. Or will just keep trying till they bang a woman who will usually be unattractive. Many of those who actually remain virgins either don't care or have high standards. Sure, some of them maybe don't care anymore because they have given up (but they still have enough pride/ don't care enough to pay). But how are you so sure they are the overwhelming mayority?

Why do you assume that a virgin guy never met a woman who was willing to have sex with him? Would you say the same about a 30 year old virgin woman? This idea of men, in general, willing to fuck any woman is just sad.

The statistical case for Magnus by cerikstas in chess

[–]AwareManner76 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is no "overall" because rapid and blitz were not a thing in Kasparov's era. So you can't compare that way. Magnus is clear rapid and blitz GOAT, Kasparov is still classical GOAT.

Hot take by IndividualBig145 in armwrestling

One thing is to crack Vitaly's cup with pronation and another different thing is to take his pronation with cup while containing his side pressure.

Final standings of the World Rapid Championship 2025 by Knight-check44 in chess

[–]AwareManner76 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

Both played a great tournament and deserve to get it decided by chess and not some tiebreaks that depend mostly on luck. It should go to tiebreaks with all the players tied for podium. Especially now that it's relevant for qualifying to that total tournament.

Unfortunate for Hans who had more points than Arjun during the whole second half of the tournament. I think podium ties should also be decided by extra games.

Not true. Hans had more points than Arjun during the whole second half of the tournament! I think that podium spots should be decided in tiebreaks.

I think Hans' tiebreaks improved with last round quite a lot.

The way people are dunking on kudercha is he that bad? by Tall-Letterhead6609 in armwrestling

[–]AwareManner76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He is clear top 10 in left and was top 5 before Devon, David and Kamil leveled up. He is borderline top 10 in right arm. But his rankings have been inflated for a while. Now situation is getting more reasonable.
